Methods Forty-five New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into three groups: AMI group, simvastatin intervention group ( Statin group) and sham-operated control group (CON). Rabbits were infarcted by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery after administration of oral simvastatin 5 mg · kg^-1·d^-1 (Statin group) or placebo (AMI group) for 3 days. Single ventricular myocytes were isolated enzymatically from the epicardial zone of the infracted region 72 h later. Whole cell patch clamp technique was used to record membrane ionic currents, including sodium current (INa), L-type calcium current (Ica-L) and transient outward potassium current (Ito). Results (1) There was not significant difference in serum cholesterol concentration among three groups. (2) The peak INa current density (at -30 mV) was significantly decreased in AMI group ( -25.26±5.28, n = 13 ), comparing with CON ( - 42. 78± 5.48, n = 16), P 〈 0. 05, while it was significantly increased in Statin group ( - 39.83 ±5.65 pA/pF, n = 12) comparing with AMI group, P 〈0. 01 ; The peak Ica-L current density ( at 0 mV) was significantly decreased in AMI group ( -3. 43 ±0. 92 pA/pF, n = 13) comparing with CON ( -4. 56 ±1.01 pA/pF, n = 15), P 〈0. 05, while it was significantly increased in Statin group ( -4. 18±0. 96 pA/pF, n = 12) comparing with AMI group, P 〈0. 05; The Ito current density ( at + 60 mV) was significantly decreased in AMI group ( 11.41 ± 1.94 pA/pF, n = 13 ) comparing with CON (17.41 ±3.13 pA/pF, n = 15), P 〈0. 01, while it was significantly increased in Statin group (16. 11 ± 2. 43 pA/pF, n = 14) comparing with AMI group, P 〈 0. 01.
